PowerShell Core
summary
PowerShell Core 6 ships Jan 10 as a cross‑platform, side-by-side portable runtime that supports Windows, macOS and Linux; roughly 50% of pull requests come from outside Microsoft. It adds SSH-based remoting, a Windows compatibility pack and a PowerShell Standard for module portability. Benchmarks claim up to 60% faster in places. Roadmap uses RFCs and experimental feature flags. Demo shows porting a C# posh-ssh module to .NET Standard 2.0 with minor edits and a mostly successful publish/import cycle.
